Writing this on behalf of my mom who broke her wrist last October and had to have two surgeries…read more Upon the initial break, when Kaiser wouldn't see her for weeks and she needed urgent surgery, Dr. Franko saw her immediately next day and scheduled a surgery before end of week. He is such a humble, down to earth doctor who explained everything thoroughly and put her mind at ease. He has amazing bedside manner and he listens to the patient with empathy. The surgery and recovery went smooth, I wholeheartedly recommend him. He provides the type of care that you just don't see with doctors these days. It is so rare to have such a caring surgeon.

He was able to do three surgeries on each arm during the same day. This means her recovery was much shorter than recovering from 6 separate surgeries. Dr Stein is meticulous. He dictates notes to the computer while you are in the room. We really like that because we get to hear what his exact thoughts are. He is very efficient in that he does all of the orders for procedures and gets the ball rolling very quickly. He is very personable and enjoyable to be around. His staff is the best! They get things moving before we even walk out of the room. We have never had to wait more than 10 minutes to see him. My neighbor also had the same surgeries from Dr Stein about 10 years ago. She highly recommended him to us. There were specialists that were closer, but we wanted the best and I think we got it!

This practice is discharge-happy…read more I came in for a pinky fracture in 2021. Went through about 6 sessions of therapy. My range of motion never returned back to normal despite the false reassurance by Dr. Stein. The therapists requested my insurance for more therapy sessions so they could try something different to see if they could get my full range of motion back. Even though my insurance approved the sessions, Jenn the PA ended up canceling my sessions being adamant saying I didn't need them. Then she unprofessionally kept arguing with me and said there's nothing else they would be willing to do to remedy the situation. I left a very frustrating voicemail for her asking why they would treat me like that. Not only did she not reply, but a week later, I received a discharge letter in the mail. Fast forward to this week, I had another injury to my hand. Knowing I have limited transportation and access to another hand clinic , I tried calling EB Hand again. I explained the discharge history to the receptionist, but she told me there was no record of me being discharged on file. So then I sent my referral to them and proceeded to book the appointment. I get three hasty call attempts maybe an hour later basically telling me they dug up files from 5 years ago saying I was discharged from their practice. I would avoid this practice like the plague. They mostly deal with Worker's Comp patients, and all they want to do is collect money from your insurance. Whether or not you experience a full recovery or they live up to their treatment promises is of absolutely NO PRIORITY to them. Beware! Zero stars for the medical staff. The one star is for Mike and Joe, the therapists, who were always great to me.

I have had to visit 3-4 physiotherapy clinics in the past and they've been usually good. However,…read moremy experience with Pacific Orthopaedic & Sports was far superior to any of the others. The entire team there is so friendly and committed to their work - you can clearly see it in their great attitudes. Kevin was my primary Physio and Julio and Kevin aided him very nicely. I also had a few sessions with France - and she's super! France has a knack to uncover root causes and how to overcome them. Kevin and France set me up with a a good set of exercises and routines that got my achy shoulder back into shape. The surgeon who recommended PT for me was amazed at the rapid improvement in just a couple of months of PT and told me that I no longer needed the surgery that would otherwise be needed. So a huge THANKS to France, the Kevins, Julio and a couple others whose names I didnt catch. Maria from the front desk made making appointments so easy - including via text - and did a great job of reminding me of upcoming sessions. Highly recommend this team for any physio needs!
